Plot introduction:
This film tells a story set in China during the late 1930s of the Anti-Japanese War. George Hogg, a British journalist, arrives just as the Japanese army is carrying out cruel massacres in the Nanjing area. In order to tell the world the truth about the war, he goes deep into the battlefield for reporting. Unfortunately, he is captured by the Japanese army but later rescued by Jack Chen of the New Fourth Army. While recovering from his injuries, George encounters more than 60 orphans who survived after a Japanese massacre. Despite the language barrier, George takes on the responsibility of caring for these children. As the war draws closer, to prevent these children from being harmed again, George and Jack unhesitatingly lead these over 60 Chinese orphans along the ancient Silk Road, covering more than a thousand kilometers, enduring hardships, crossing snow-capped mountains, and reaching the edge of the desert to escape the warfare, only to face new life stories... On the set of "The Children of Huangshi," Jerry Gewargen is the director's right-hand man, the "grand steward" above all others. His position in the crew is First Assistant Director, which translates directly into Chinese as the first deputy director, but this "first deputy director" has much more power than their counterparts domestically. This position is equivalent to a "prime minister," handling everything from the scene to logistics. This Jerry has been working in this field for a lifetime, from the 1970s "Star Wars," "Superman," to the 1980s "Elephant Man," "Magic Hour," and then to the early 21st century's "Tomb Raider," "Troy," truly the world's "first deputy director."
